V-STYLE BRAKES
If not already assembled, take the brake noodle from the parts box
and slide the cable through the larger opening. The cable housing
will then seat into the end of the noodle. Slide the cable through
the cable lead on the end of the left brake arm, this will cause the
noodle to fit into the lead. Always make sure that the noodle is
properly seated in the outer cable lead. Slip the brake cable boot
over the cable and position it between both brake arms. Next,
loosen the 5 mm anchor bolt at the end of the right brake arm and
slide the cable under the retaining washer. Pull the slack out of the
cable making sure a distance of 39 mm or more remains between
the end of the lead and the start of the anchor bolt. Once the cable
is secured to the brake arms, engage the brake lever several times,
checking the position of the brake shoes at the rim. The brake shoes
should be 1 mm away from the rim when in a relaxed position. When
the brake lever is engaged, the brake shoe should hit the rim flush
(never the tire) with the front touching slightly before the rear. If this
position is not achieved, adjustments to the brake shoe is required.
Loosen the brake shoe and cable adjustments before the required
position is accomplished.
